Procedure

The title compound was prepared according to the procedure described by H. H. Otto, Helvetica Chimica Acta, 2004, 87, 90 using (3R)-5-oxo-4-(phenylmethyl)-3-morpholinecarboxylic acid (D44, 3.13 g, 13.33 mmol) in EtOH (30 mL), cooling in an ice bath before adding Thionyl Chloride (1.46 mL) dropwise, and then stirring at R.T. for 6 hours. Added more thionyl chloride (1 mL) and stirring at R.T. overnight. Added more thionyl chloride (1 mL) and stirred for 4 hours, added further thionyl chloride (0.5 mL) and stirred overnight again. Added thionyl chloride (0.2 mL) and left stirring for 5 hours. Solvent evaporated to afford the title compound as an orange oil in quantitative yield.
